Kidney Cancer?

What is Kidney Cancer?

Kidney cancer occurs when abnormal cells in the kidney grow and form a tumour that can affect kidney function and the body's ability to filter waste.

Main types include:

Renal Cell Carcinoma

The most common type of adult kidney cancer, starting in the kidney’s filtering cells.

Transitional Cell Carcinoma

Starts in the renal pelvis — the part of the kidney that connects to the ureter.

Wilms' Tumour

A rare kidney cancer most commonly found in children.

Any disruption in kidney tissue can affect filtration, fluid balance, and overall health.

Can Ayurveda help kidney cancer patients?

Ayurveda offers supportive measures to strengthen the body, manage side effects, and improve overall wellbeing. We always coordinate with conventional care for safety and effectiveness.

What dietary changes help kidney health?

Reducing salt, moderating protein intake as advised by your physician, and choosing kidney-friendly foods can help. Individualized plans are best.
